Is number1boss in the top 15 including inactive ftp players? I think gemeos' rules are to be in the top 15 including retired players OR if your goal is to get max xp and you have fewer hours than paperbag left.

Yeah now that you're back things are about to get real interesting A13D for weekly updates

People make this stupid argument way too often on this thread. People are telling suomi what they think, no one is putting a gun to his head and making him do what they think is best. If you think people shouldn't be telling suomi they think he made the wrong decision then you should also not be telling suomi you think he is making the right decision because you are also influencing his future thoughts on the subject and you are affecting "his decision" which you think people should stay out of.

I'm glad you found a way to enjoy slow skills paperbag, you are completely different to how you were 18 months ago.

All this shows is that people used the wrong word when they had invested their money. Providing the definitions means nothing.

Taking a break to get rank 1 in warcraft ofc

Mining is not much concentration with jujus or fast dropping with the action bar (might be nerfed with the 3 inputs per tick limit). And Jagex did mention social agility right? He has got hunter and thieving already which require attention and slayer which is slow. Of course every skill is different but I think he has what it takes.

Record sites don't show records gained on bonus xp afaik

Saves an equal amount of time regardless of xp/hour. Although you do lose a bit since you'll have to travel around some. It'll probably be beneficial if fpf tickets don't work. To add to this, bonus xp saves an equal amount of time whether you spend your bonus hours getting 1-90 and then doing 90+ off bonus xp or if you get 1-90 beforehand then spend an equal amount of time during bonus xp getting 90+. Since it's actually a bonus for a period of time, rather than a specific amount of xp, it's actually rather different. At level 90, say, you have access to the best courses and can get a great deal of xp per hour - at level 1, you can get far, far less xp per hour because you can only use the starting course. While they both get doubled, the end result is still higher for 90+ than for 1-90. On the contrary if it was for a certain amount of xp then doing a low xp/hour skill would be better. And doing the low levels of a skill on bonus xp would also be better. make up an example for yourself and calculate it yourself.

It doesn't really matter does it. Neither will people obtain such a state from their job, or their studies, or any other 'activity' in life. I disagree. I think you have a better chance of getting a sense of fulfillment if you do a job you like, perhaps helping others or changing peoples' lives for the better.

Happiness is more than a pleasurable sensation, to achieve long term happiness it is more important to attain a deep feeling of fulfillment and serenity and I don't think rs can provide that. Yes, the two kinds of happiness you're referring to are "hedonic happiness" (fulfilling basic needs; short-term gratifications; entertainment) and "eudaimonic happiness" (fulfillment, growth, long-term happiness, etc.). Eudaimonic happiness generally comes from within, not from external validations, gratifications, and accomplishments. And I do agree that RS generally can't bring you eudaimonic happiness. I'm just saying that people shouldn't be discrediting RS achievements in comparison to RL achievements since they're basically the same thing most of the time, as far as happiness goes. And again, as Jebrim has illustrated previously, accomplishments are subjective. I think some of the top 15 dont realise the difference and dont realise they wont get eudaimonic happiness from rs.

Maybe suomi will have time to cut his beard now

I saw that in a newspaper about 4 months ago, at the rate I'm going I'll be 10k at 22.

Why arent you maxed yet

If someone doesnt enjoy a skill as much as another player and they both completed it in the same time does that mean that the player who doesnt enjoy it put in more "work"? I wouldnt call someone a better rs'er if they hated what they did and still completed it. Up til now you have defined work as both time and attention so why would enjoyment not count as affecting the "work"?

Playing within the spirit of the game might also constitute how good a scaper is. You sound very cocky here

I doubt he'll even get a mention in the news. Jagex will probably just troll him and raise the exp cap when he's almost done. Probably they will make a sellout of him, try to make something out of it like 200m accounts. Finnish themed capes on sof this week only.

Lol burning out from afking nice pun btw

I have quit caring about quitting456 Numbers because the name quitting must be taken :P

If so, that could actually, you know.. get me back into Runescape lol! No more RSI development if it's that good. If that's brilliant, I might take up Mining again! It will most likely get nerfed but yh I doubt it

I still dont see where we used p-1 instead of 1-p. Or what is wrong with our method.

We did use q=1-p I think you are confusing that with f'(p) which did simplify to (p-1)3
